Surgery

Minimally invasive surgery, including robotic surgery, is the preferred surgical approach for many conditions. Unlike open surgery, which usually requires a long incision, minimally invasive procedures are different because they:

Are less complicated

Involve smaller incisions (dime size)

Incur less trauma on the body

Involve faster healing

Can have better outcomes

The camera sends a two-dimensional image of the surgical site to a high-definition monitor which the surgeon watches during the operation.

Minimally invasive gynecologic surgeries are available for the following conditions:
